when deposited with it. Every possible
safeguard has been placed aroiu.d its man-
agement. It is insured in strong compa-
nies against loss by either fire, day tiuic
robbery or burglary at night.

of all bank failures is .known to be the result of "loans to officers."
Bpcausk our own Auditor examines each one of our Hanks four
times every year, and not twice yearly, as do National Banks.
BhcauhK we are a strong Bank financially. We have now, with cap-
ital paid in, net profits and surplus, above $600,000. Our capital
will be further increased from our author-
ized capital of $1,000,000 as the business
requires it.
BECAUSE the strength of any Iiank is in
its management. The managers of the Conti-
nental Bank cannot speculate. Its by-laws
forltid it. It does not lend money for speculation.

locking after such matters,
and the only reason The
News can assign for the over-
sight is the apparent insignfi-
cance of the thing, and the
fact that the cost of maintain-
ing it would be so small.
This is the provision for the
care of the farmer's vehicles
and stock during his stay in
town. While this item may
appear upon first thought to
be of secondary importance, it
is nevertheless a very impor-
tant one to the man who
drives his team to town, and
particularly to the one who
has to remain over all day,
as is sometimes the case. It
is found that in many places
there are not even enough
to looking aftei the "money
involved iu the purchase of
the stock, but as a matter of
kindness and mercy to the
dumb beasts.

ence blights the prosperity of
the merchants as well as tlie
farmer. Texas farms must
prod lice more pork, more
cream, more eggs and poul-
try, more corn, alfalfa and
other food products. It is
not only the cost of products
shipped into the state, but
also the money paid out for
freight that goes to enrich peo-
ple of other localities. When
Texas becomes an exporter of
agricultural products, the val-
ue of such products, and the
large percentage of the freight
expense entailed iu handling
them, will remain in Texas or
increase the value of our
farms, or build more mil-
roads for our increased pro-
ductions.—Troupe Banner.
